He has the same effect on me. My mother used to have this immense dislike of Canadian politician and former Prime Minister Brian Mulroney. She said she could never look at him without wanting to vomit. I have a similar reaction looking at Dubya. It's just visceral and it goes way back to before the war in Iraq and the whole thing. He scares the crap out of me. There's a columnist in the Toronto Star who writes a column on TV. Her last few have been devoted to TV coverage of the war in Iraq. One thing that stood out for me in Saturday's column was this: "one thing U.S. TV didn't show but BBC beamed around the world: live video of President George W. Bush having his hair pouffed as he fidgeted in the Oval Office just before Wednesday night's speech announcing the launch of Operation Iraqi Freedom.Knight-Ridder newspapers reported he pumped his fist and said, 'Feels good.'" Scary, innit?
